Description: |
This feature request comes from a chat discussion Dan, Larry, and I had with Gerald W. Lester solving a problem he had with a small smtpd proxy and the smtp module itself. smtpd delivers the message as list of lines. smtp expects the message as mime token, which is initialized with a string! We believe it would be better if smtpd would deliver the incoming message directly as a mime token. We actually believe that all front-ends (for example the upcoming pop3 server) should use mime tokens to transfer mail data to and from their backends. | |||

Logged In: YES user_id=202636 I have added a new option to the smtpd package. smtpd::configure -deliverMIME delivery calls the 'delivery' procedure with a MIME token. If the -deliverMIME option is unset then the original package behaviour is maintained. The user now needs to write something like: proc delivery {token} { ... } I've updated the documentation and added a new example 'tk_smtpdMIME' to the examples directory. andreas_kupries added on 2002-03-19 03:38:15: File Added - 19593: Scratchpad.txt |
